About

My career took the jungle-gym route. Theatre. Hospitality. Tech. (+ a few other stops along the way) What looked unrelated turned into an unfair advantage. I build systems that scale and still feel human. I like clear rituals, intuitive systems & processes, and teams that ship with high quality & velocity.
